What to do

Park in the parking lot to the left of the property. Put your bags on a cart and go into the door way and go left. Then, empty a bag or two into one of the baskets next to the can machine. Do a quick double-check to make sure there aren't any plastic bottles or steel soup cans in your load, and then you'll be almost done. One of our friendly staff will be there to get your cans weighed, and then he'll give you a weight ticket that you'll present to a scale operator in the room next door.

Two ways to know aluminum cans from steel cans

Surprisingly enough, not all beverage cans are made of aluminum. Oftentimes people bring in bag-fulls of cans, in which half of them are made of steel. The fastest way to tell if a can is aluminum or steel is by taking a refrigerator magnet to it. If the magnet clings onto the can, the can is steel! NOTE: We love to buy steel cans too! Just bring them to the next room and we will buy them!

The other way to tell the difference is by squeezing the can. If it easily starts to crush within your grip, then the can is almost certainly made of aluminum. Try crushing a soup can that way, for instance. Chances are that without superhuman grip, a soup can won't crush so easily. And by the way, soup cans are steel—and as said we buy them too! Just head over to a scale operator after you drop off those aluminum cans, and get paid for both types of cans. Got a piece of heavy machinery to bring in? Hey. Get paid for that, too!

Stop by Goldsboro Metal Recycling and recycle aluminum cans for money

It's hard to believe, but according to an article on Aluminum.org, the Aluminum Association, the Can Manufacturers Institute (CMI), and the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) agreed that 65.1% of aluminum cans produced in 2011 were recycled. That amounts to 61 BILLION cans! The new goal is 75% by 2015. So, have any aluminum cans? Stop by Goldsboro Metal Recycling at 801 N. John Street, Goldsboro, NC and get paid for them by the pound.
